Potters Leisure Resort in Hopton near Great Yarmouth has had to close following an outbreak of winter vomiting bug, Norovirus.

An event celebrating the life of the resort's late chairman Brian Potter due to take place on Wednesday has been cancelled.

The resort has apologised to guests due to check in this week and will be offering them a full refund. They aim to reopen on Friday.

The wellbeing of our guests and staff is paramount and therefore we
have made the decision to temporarily close, so that we can conduct a thorough deep cleanse to end the virus. We have advised the relevant public health authorities and they have praised our preventative course of action. Guests due to check in today have been contacted to advise them of the closure and will receive a full refund.

We apologise for the inconvenience that this will have caused our guests, but believe that this unprecedented move is necessary.

The government has pledged a total of £60 million for a series of projects across Essex, Norfolk, and Suffolk. The windfall will benefit the aviation industry and create thousands of new jobs, homes, and better roads. But critics claim it's just another political sweetener three months ahead of the General Election. Malcolm Robertson's been looking at one of the schemes designed to benefit.
